Weekend Giveaway: Againbags

Today’s weekend giveaway is sponsored by Againbags–a company stopping the use of plastic baggies one lunch at a time.

How Againbags got started

“Over the years, my children have carried countless lunches to school. And every time I packed one of those lunches in a plastic bag, I thought there has to be a better way — I felt worse and worse about all those plastic bags from my home ending up in landfills.

It didn’t make things any better that I was trying to teach my own children the value of recycling. “Recycle in every way you can,” I said to them as I handed them a plastic bag that we all knew would be thrown away as soon as they were done with it.

But one day I wondered, why not make a reusable bag, one that looked cool, and which they’d be proud to carry to school and (most importantly!) home again?

The idea grew on me, and one day I asked my children what I should call it. My little one said, “Call it an Againbag, Mommy, because I can use it again and again.”

About our bags

“Our active bags come in solid colors and can be mixed and matched to create a unique set. The large size or sub size is a heavy weight 2 ply construction and will hold up to the most active of lifestyles while keeping food fresh.

Phew, I am still in time. This is one of those things that I am like “Why didn’t I think of that!” lol Probably b/c I have no sewing skills, but I will happily buy some of your wonderful inventions.Becky @ Sowing Little Seeds’s latest post: I Was Only A Child………
